Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffeinatin’. YAWN ‘Tis 73 Amurrkin out and clear with a predicted high of 94 for the day and maybe rain. The usual forecast for this time of year. Tonight is men’s night over to the church house. Thus steaks are marinatin’ and beer is chillin’. I’ll head over about four this afternoon to get stuff started.
So will this be the for real MMP? Will there be a duplicate? Is this the duplicate? So much unknown here! Anywho, I’m retired so I decided to try my luck.
Now I need more caffeine and to feed rumbly tummy. I suppose I should purtify as well as I do have a few errands to run and will do them early just to get 'em out of the way because, well, I’m retired and I can.
We are an exceptionally tidy bunch - or at least we talk about cleaning and stuff. But SOME PEOPLE!!! :smack:
I stopped on the way to work to get a breakfast sammich, and once at the office, I wanted to warm it up in the microwave. What a thrill to find that someone spilled and left a mess on the turntable, so I got to clean it up before I could warm my sammich.
But it’s not just at work - we encounter slobs everywhere, don’t we? The ones who don’t clean up their picnic tables at the park, the ones who leave their trash on the beach, the ones who toss their garbage out the car windows as they head down the interstate, the shoppers who decide they don’t want that item after all and just leave it on a random display…
Knock it off, you slobby people!! Your mommies may have picked up after you, but the rest of us have lives and we don’t want to waste them cleaning up your messes.
I just KNEW I’d be ninjaed! Oh and first! I attempted to start an MMP just a few minutes ago. Maybe a Mod will come along and tidy up the mess shortly. Cause, well, we ain’t slobs!
Retired also, on my third cup of coffee. Up since 3 am. Waiting for the sun to come up so I can start my day. Cinnamon rolls at the donut shop should be ready about any minute now and will be nice and hot .
Not as good as being retired, but I am taking a well-deserved day off today! Enjoying a tasty cup of hazelnut coffee in bed, and watching the morning news with my doggies.
I have big plans for my day off, too. First up: going back to sleep. That should be followed by moving into the living room to watch more TV, and eventually venturing into the kitchen for something to eat.
Yeah, I know I promised myself that I will do laundry, and mop and vacuum today…but I am hoping to put that off as long as possible, and just enjoy as much of my day being lazy as I can!
I’m not going to get into any graphic detail here, but suffice it to say I encountered the handiwork of a world class slob in the grocery store bathroom yesterday. Did I mention this was a ‘world class’ mess?
Since I’m not retired and I hate slobs, I’ll start over here until we merge.
I totally dislike people who throw their trash on the ground. The city up here was nice enough to put trash cans on the corner but people still walk by and throw their trash on the ground. Very annoying and just plain rude.
Sometime this week we have to go get Sah-son’s books. School starts in two weeks. I can’t believe summer is almost over.
It’s bright and sunny outside, going to be hot again today.
I need some breakfast and to get busy doing some things.
I work with a bunch of slobs and our academic staff are the worst of the lot. We have a resource room where the copiers and spare bits of stationary live…and obviously lots of paper for the copiers and printers. I can’t even imagine the amount of time I’ve spent in there tidying up while I’m waiting for the machine to finish my print run. There’s never a time I go in there and don’t see something that needs to be tidied up or put away properly. What must their homes be like?!
In other news, I had a fantastic weekend drinking beer and watching bands…shame I have to come back to work but I’m only here until Thursday then I’m off on my hols. On the downside, my poor little Shadow has cystitis so he’s off to the vet tonight to be poked and prodded.
Oh, and before you ask, yes I do have a coaster on my desk for my tea mug. In fact I have a spare one for my water bottle and a couple of emergency coasters in my desk drawer. Well, you never know when you might need one!
Good morning, early for me. I tend to sleep in on my schedule, but my work truck has been in the shop since Wednesday and I need to retrieve it. Been on vacation for a week, just hung out and did stuff around the house.
As far as sloppiness goes it’s just me here - I go in spurts. I try to keep it tidy but sometimes I let it slide. For example the sink needs to be cleaned of cooking dishes, etc.
Back to work. I missed the apartment explosion last week. Hopefully things get quieter.
